Bollywood actress Zareen Khan and businessman Shivashish Mishra have officially ended their relationship after three years together. The couple, who started dating in 2021, have reportedly broken up on mutual terms. In a notable sign of their split, both individuals have unfollowed each other on Instagram, although Shivashish has chosen to leave their past pictures intact on the platform.
For those unfamiliar with Shivashish Mishra, he came into the public eye as a contestant on the controversial reality show “Bigg Boss 12.” Entering the show as a commoner, Mishra was later eliminated, while the season was ultimately won by television actress Dipika Kakar.
Zareen Khan, on the other hand, has a more extensive and varied career within the Indian film industry. She made her Bollywood debut in 2010, starring alongside Salman Khan in the epic film “Veer,” where she portrayed the role of a princess. Despite the film’s lackluster performance at the box office, it opened doors for Zareen to make her mark in Bollywood, for which she credits Salman Khan. “It’s been a rollercoaster ride. I am somebody who never dreamed of being a part of this industry. I thank Salman for giving me the opportunity. I never thought that I could be a part of the film world without him,” Zareen told IANS.
Reflecting on her journey so far, she added, “I did not have to struggle to enter into films but my real struggle started after I became part of it. I do not come from a filmy background, so it took me a while to understand how this industry works. I won’t say that it’s been 10 years and I have figured it all. Honestly, I am still learning. But, today I am much better than what I was when I just came.”
The journey following her debut with “Veer” saw Zareen appear in the widely popular track ‘Character Dheela’ from the Salman Khan-starrer ‘Ready’ in 2011.
. Her acting career continued to gain momentum with roles in films like ‘Housefull 2.’ She also ventured into Tamil cinema, marking her debut with the song ‘Malgove’ in the film ‘Naan Rajavaga Pogiren.’ Her versatility as an actress was further demonstrated when she starred in the Punjabi film ‘Jatt James Bond’ in 2014 and made a strong comeback to Hindi cinema with the 2015 erotic thriller ‘Hate Story 3.’
Most recently, Zareen was seen in the film ‘Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele,’ directed by Harish Vyas. The film features a unique storyline exploring the friendship between a gay man, Veer Pratap Randhawa, and a lesbian woman, Mansi Dubey, during a road trip. The cast also included Anshuman Jha, Ravi Khanvilkar, Gurfateh Pirzada, and Nitin Sharma.
Despite the breakup, both Zareen and Shivashish seem to be moving forward amicably. As of now, Shivashish has not erased their shared memories from his Instagram, indicating a respectful closure to their relationship.
While the end of this chapter in their personal lives may come as a disappointment to their fans, it marks the start of new beginnings for both Zareen and Shivashish. Each of them has their separate paths to pursue, with Zareen continuing her work in the film industry and Shivashish carving out his niche in the business world.
The nuances of their breakup, like the mutual unfollowing on Instagram and Shivashish’s decision not to delete their pictures together, have spurred conversations on social media. Fans remain curious and supportive, awaiting any potential updates from the celebrities themselves.
Zareen Khan’s fans continue to support her, eagerly anticipating her next move in the film industry. Her diverse body of work across multiple Indian film industries, including Hindi, Punjabi, Telugu, and Tamil, testifies to her versatility and resilience as an actress. With her career still going strong, the end of her relationship with Shivashish Mishra is just another chapter in her life story.
As they both move on from their three-year relationship, both Zareen and Shivashish have the support of their fans and the public. Each step forward is a new phase in their lives, shaping their individual journeys and future endeavors.
